Located in area of natural outstanding beauty, great for walkers and lovers of the great outdoors, with sweeping beach and great local eateries. The home is charming, warm and cosy with a real open fire and sea views.
Off-road parking. Private garden for BBQ season. Locals are friendly and helpful.

Craster is a charming fishing village where time seems to have stood still Neighbours are friendly and willing to give advice and lend a hand or if you just want to know whats going on in the village or nearby villages. The area is popular with walkers as their are beautiful walks in every direction. The local golf club is nearby if you fancy taking in around or two. Alternatively you can totally relax and enjoy the sea views, sit in the pretty harbour watching the local fisherman or take a boat out to sea, and theirs always a bit of rock pooling in the numerous rock pools directly on the doorstop. If you want to relax Craster will certainly do that for you.

You will be staying in our home, we have two letting rooms so you may be at a communal table. There are tea and coffee facilities. Breakfast is in the conservatory and is served between 7am and 9am.

We are on the Northumbrian Coastal path between Holy Island and Warkworth Castle. Dunstanburgh is a short walk and Alnwick is a 15 min drive. The beaches are near and the sea about 300 meters! The Howick Gardens and Alnwick Garden are near, as is the home of Earl Grey, of prime minister and tea fame

We were greeted with a welcome from Rosie that included a cup of tea and home-made cake in the conservatory. Our accommodation was super-comfortable - we had wonderful sea views and a really lovely bathroom. Breakfasts (the quality, style and presentation) were another highlight. Rosie has lots of local knowledge that she willingly shares and we would gladly stay with her again.

Noëlle & Will2016-08-02T00:00:00Z

Highly recommended. Warm welcome on arrival (with tea and cake), very comfortable room, great views andexcellent breakfasts. Rosie is a deep well of local knowledge which we tapped extensively for some very enjoyable days out, and are sure plenty more remains to provide for planned future stays.

Alan2017-04-30T00:00:00Z

We had a fantastic stay with Rosie - a beautiful house, in a wonderful part of the world, sea view, a really warm welcome and a delicious breakfast. Would enthusiastically recommend staying here!

David2016-05-04T00:00:00Z

We had a very lovely stay with Rosie. The room was extremely comfortable and the breakfast were great. Nice touch to have fresh fish straight from the smokehouse. Rosie gave us great information of the local area and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. Thank you Rosie.

Lindsey2016-05-29T00:00:00Z

Excellent. Superb location with a stunning sea view. Top notch breakfasts with the world famous Craster kippers available from the smokehouse a 1/4 mile away. Rosie did us proud.

Steve2016-08-05T00:00:00Z

A warm, tea and cake welcome from Rosie at her lovely home on the edge of Craster. We enjoyed the sea view from our light and spacious bedroom with its equally spacious, and comfy, bed and well-appointed ensuite. Rosie's breakfasts were a highlight, with lots of choice but no-one should go to Craster without sampling the local speciality of smoked fish (kippers, salmon, haddock) all of which Rosie served beautifully. She was an excellent hostess and we would thoroughly recommend staying with her.

Angela2016-09-22T00:00:00Z

Rosie made us feel really at home during our stay and our breakfast in the morning was just divine - kippers and fresh fruit and beautiful break fast room just for us. We had a fabulous saty. Thank you Rosie.

Lisa2016-07-04T00:00:00Z

We were welcomed with tea and cake. Rosie was really friendly and helpful, she had some really good tips for places to visit in the area. The room was lovely, a huge comfy bed and a fantastic view. The breakfast was delicious, the Craster smoked fish was a special treat. Thankyou for a lovely break, we look forward to visiting again.

Fiona and Michael made us all feel most welcome, even provided us with 2 bottles of wine. The apartment had everything you could wish for and is beautifully appointed. A combination of modern equipment complimented by traditional and sophisticated decor. Craster Tower is a wonderfully relaxing and quiet place to spend a few days away from it all.

Glenn2016-05-28T00:00:00Z

I have no words really to describe our amazing stay at Craster Tower. It was wonderful!! The hosts Fiona and Michael were amazing - we had a late arrival (later than initially planned with them due to traffic) and they were kind enough to wait until late to welcome us and introduce us to their AMAZING place! Me and my family were awed the moment when we entered and very excited to stay in a Castle. We especially enjoyed the 'blue room' with the open fire and spent our nights playing games and listening to the music selection. We also loved the kitchen and eating around the large kitchen table. The surrounding areas are beautiful to explore as well - Craster, Alnwick, Holy Island, Berwick upon Tweed - all places worth to visit. This is a stay we will never forget! We will be back!

You will be staying in our home. Your room is private with ensuite. There are a TV and chairs. We have 2 letting rooms so you may be at a communal table for breakfast in the conservatory.

On the coast. Historic and cultural heritage. 7 castles and miles of beaches. Little fishing village with good pub and restaurant. We use local produce and have a wealth of local knowledge.

A lovely two days in a great area for exploring the beautiful Northumberland coastline. We so enjoyed meeting and talking with Rosie and the accommodation and food was super.

Sue2016-07-28T00:00:00Z

Our host greeted us with a warm Welcome and offered us a cup of tea. The room was just as described and was very comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble for Rosie who did all she could to make our trip special. The breakfasts were very high quality and delicious. We were invited to use the conservatory and sofas. Although a little more expensive than some airb&bs the exceptionally high quality experience made it very good value for money.

Kate2016-08-03T00:00:00Z

Rosie was extremely helpful and gave us good advice and travel tips. Breakfast was lovely and in her fabulous conservatory.

Alison2016-08-19T00:00:00Z

Rosie greeted us on arrival and showed us around the room and breakfast area. Rosie gave us lots of useful advice on the local area and made us a dinner reservation at the local pub (which gets very busy). The room was exactly as described and very comfortable. Rosie offered a choice of breakfast items as well as the usual cereal, yoghurt, fresh fruit.

James2016-08-02T00:00:00Z

We had a fantastic stay in a part of the country I have not stated before. Rosie was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of info. Breakfast were great, good choice and plentiful. Would definitely recommend.

Pam2016-08-26T00:00:00Z

We had a fantastic 4 nights staying with Rosie. The room is well located in an annex on the ground floor giving an extra feeling of privacy and quiet. Loved the seaside feel to the decor and the special touches such as tea, coffee and the guides to Northumberland. You would be hard pressed to find a better breakfast in Northumberland with such a great choice of local produce. I'm particularly grateful for how Rosie accommodated for my vegan diet preparing something new for me each morning. Craster is a lovely seaside village 15 minutes drive from Alnick, perfectly located to access all the main attractions on the Northumberland coast. It's a quiet spot, so do expect to drive to find alternative restaurants from the local pub. Really appreciated Rosie's insider tips about places to visit, it really helped us make the most out of the time we had. Overall, a fantastic stay and looking forwards to being able to return to the area!

Emma2016-09-01T00:00:00Z

We would highly recommend you staying with Rosie if you're wanting to visit Craster.

Geoff 2017-04-25T00:00:00Z

Rosie is the hostess with the mostess! When we arrived she let us have the room early and also upgraded us to a room with the most amazing sea view. Rosie made a delicious breakfast with locally sourced produce and we had a good natter over breakfast (although she wasn't intrusive at all) The B&B is situated in one of the most beautiful spots in Northumberland. We enjoyed a lovely meal at The Jolly Fisherman which I would also recommend. You can walk to the restaurant / pub which is really handy. We will be back, hopefully with lovely weather again!

The traditional old stone cottage is comfortably renovated in a secluded and quiet farm lane. It feels so peaceful and calm but also old and full of times gone by. The sea and Dunstanburgh castle are within 10 minutes walk.

A castle round the corner
Beautiful walks and views
On the ancient St Oswald s way by the wild Northumbrian coast
Comfortable accommodation
Cosy and warm with all mod cons
Wifi and TV

The cottage is lovely, with comfortable beds, and a newly fitted kitchen and bathroom. The location is terrific - lovely walks from the front door, and nice pubs a short drive away. Communication with Ceri was speedy in advance, although much slower while we were there as she was away - it would have been good to have either a folder of instructions for the cottage (we couldn't find out how to turn on the heating) or someone else to talk to in her absence. We all thought it was a shame that basic household goods weren't provided: no dishwasher tabs, washing up liquid, mop, broom etc, and not even salt and pepper in the cupboards. If we'd known we'd have taken these things with us, but as it was we had to go and buy them. All in all a lovely place to stay, but go with everything you think you'll need.

Nicky2016-02-21T00:00:00Z

This is a beautiful cottage in a gorgeous location. Quiet, warm, well appointed and equipped, with the bonus of great with views all around. Beaches, Dunstanburgh castle and pubs are all within a walker's easy reach. The cottage comfortably sleeps 6. The kitchen diner is well equipped and a great place to congregate to while away the evenings. The lounge is a small cosy room with a long L-shaped sofa. Ceri is a very helpful host who quickly and fully responds to enquiries. A little tip if you're travelling in separate cars to get there - you might find it difficult to get phone service when you're at the cottage so make your calls and arrangements beforehand. Wifi is good when you arrive.

Paula2016-10-10T00:00:00Z

This cottage is beautiful and we had no trouble upon arrival entering the building as Ceri's instructions were very clear. There were two booklets which told us everything we needed to know about the area. The cottage was clean, fully equipped with all the stuff we needed for two nights there. I would advise anyone who intends to cook there to stock up on food as there aren't many shops close by! The cottage is very quiet and around 20 minute walk from the local pub and a further walk into Craster, the perfect location if you want some piece and quiet, long walks and close to Dunstanburgh castle too. Really enjoyed our stay - thank you very much Ceri.

Leesa2016-06-13T00:00:00Z

This is a really lovely cottage in a beautiful location, we really enjoyed our stay thank you. The house was very well equipped and the beds were really comfortable. It was very quiet at night. Our dogs loved the walks straight from the house along the coastal path.

Sally2016-04-15T00:00:00Z

Lovely cottage in beautiful area. Very comfy cottage and well equipped. In fabulous location for Coast walking and craster visits. We will be back !

Kate2015-10-31T00:00:00Z

We had a lovely weekend in Ceri's cottage. It is very cosy and welcoming and the beds are so comfortable! As we were there for a local wedding we didn't explore the local area but it looked beautiful!

Katie2016-04-04T00:00:00Z

The host canceled this reservation 27 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Jonathan2015-12-01T00:00:00Z

The cottage was easily accessible and in a very beautiful location. As I traveled around the UK for 2 weeks I found Ceri's home one of the most comfortable by far. Take the time to walk to the coast as we did and you will see the most spectacular sunrise.

Snowdrop Cottage, Embleton is a fabulously cosy, stone built cottage in the heart of this beautiful coastal village. Just a few minutes stroll to the beach and the local pubs/restaurants...the perfect place for you to relax and enjoy Northumberland!

Snowdrop Cottage is furnished and equipped to a very high standard and provides the perfect base for those looking to explore the delights of the heritage coastline as well as those looking for total relaxation in this beautiful area. The cottage provides accommodation for four people and is an ideal retreat for couples, families and groups of friends. For larger groups Snowdrop can be booked with its sister cottages, Crocus and Periwinkle, which are part of the same converted stone coach house and also sleep four, therefore providing accommodation for up to 12 people.
Downstairs the cottage has an attractive open-plan living space, with lounge, kitchen and dining area. The lounge includes two leather sofas, 32" flat-screen TV with DVD and Freeview, an i-Pod docking station, CD player/radio and a selection of books, games and DVDs for those cosy evenings in. The modern kitchen includes an electric hob, grill and oven, a fridge with a freezing compartment as well as a microcwave, toaster, kettle, cafetiere and a small amount of tea and coffee to welcome you at your journey's end. You will also find it is well stocked with cooking equipment and utensils. The dining area seats four comfortably at a sturdy wooden dining table.
Upstairs the cottage has a double bedroom and a twin bedroom, each with a wardrobe and drawer space.
The bathroom has a bath with electric shower over, WC and wash basin.
Outside the cottage opens up onto a small, south-facing patio area with a sturdy wooden bench and 'bistro' style table and chairs. There is a private parking space allocated to the cottage.

The village of Embleton is one of Northumberland's true gems. Why not try the wonderfully traditional village pub - The Greys Inn, or try out the Dunstanburgh Castle Hotel, which shares the courtyard with Snowdrop Cottage. The award winning Embleton Bay is a ten minute stroll away, with its beautiful sandy beach that seems to stretch for miles. Just before you reach the dunes you'll see Dunstanburgh Castle Golf Club, which boasts a traditional 18 hole links course with views that simply cannot be beaten. There is also a bar and restaurant in the club which are open to the public. The village has a small shop and post office and for the younger ones there is a delightful, well-equipped and modern play area in the village.
Such is the beauty of the location of this lovely village, there is much that can be done without going anywhere near your car. A gentle stroll up the coast will bring you to the delightful village of Low Newton with its renowned pub, The Ship Inn (which has its own microbrewery!) and picturesque bay. To the south of Embleton it is just a short stroll to the magnificient ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle and continuing past you will soon arrive in the village of Craster, with its harbour and world famous kippers!

I'm always a little disappointed when I book somewhere on Airbnb and it turns out to be a holiday letting company, to me that's not what the ethos of Airbnb is about and I find that mostly holiday let companies don't provide the unique extras which private individuals homes do. This cottage is tiny, has some charm but I wouldn't particularly call it dog-friendly as it has no gate on the back garden, thankfully my dog just potters and she loved being so close to the beach, as a travel writer I've stayed in so many unique places and if I was going to find positive things to say about this place it would be that it's so rural you can hear the birds singing loudly. You can walk to Craster in just under an hour or Low Newton By the Sea in around 45 minutes, your dogs will adore the long sandy beaches that Embleton has to offer, Embleton beach was named as beach of the year by Countryfile earlier this week.

Had a wonderful 3 night break at Snowdrop Cottage. Embleton is a small village close to the Northumberland coast... 10/15 min walk. The cottage has everything you'd need. Beds very comfy. Lovely comfortable leather sofas in the lounge area.There is a shop & post office in the village. Right next door to the property is the Dunstanburgh Castle Hotel where we had our evening meals. There are 2 other places to eat. Greys Inn & The Bluebell Inn. Though if we had wanted everything was available to cook in the cottage. Only 6 miles from Seahouses... so easy to visit the Farne Islands. My favourite boats are the Serenity catamarans. This holiday in Northumberland we visited Cragside NT home of the famous engineer/inventor Armstrong. Other places Alnwick Castle & gardens. Holy Island, with Lindsfarne. The lovely broad sandy coastline. Will be recommending to family & friends

June2017-05-17T00:00:00Z

Lovely warm cosy cottage, just as described. Ideally located for the beach, long coastal walks and relaxing! Would go again!

We found the apartment had all that we required for a weekend away, very clean and nicly presented It is easy to find when coming off the A1 and Fiona gave good directions in her email, so finding it shouldn't be a problem. Situated in a quite village and within easy travel distance to the coastal areas and main attractions, we managed to see quite a lot of this beautiful area during our stay. Also provided is quite a good list of recommenced places to visit & pubs,restaurants & cafes to try out. Fiona was there when we arrived and she made us feel very welcome.

Jill2016-09-19T00:00:00Z

Lovely property - well appointed, it had everything we needed. The hosts were very helpful and welcomed us when we arrived, but didn't make you feel as though you were staying in their property which was great. We came for a wedding so didn't have much time to explore the local area unfortunately, but would love to return.

Ashley2016-06-13T00:00:00Z

A perfect spot for a relaxing, two night stay. Birdsong Lodge is cosy, immaculately presented and has everything you need (the welcome drinks in the fridge were a lovely touch!) It is in a brilliant location; we enjoyed a walk at Longhoughton beach as well as visits to Newton by the Sea and Alnwick Castle.

Simon2016-07-08T00:00:00Z

The accommodation was fantastic, just as described. The location and area are sensational. We will definitely be back! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Birdsong as a great place to stay

Sue2017-05-06T00:00:00Z

A really comfortable stay, the apartment was spotless and well situated to visit coastal attractions. Sugar Sands Bay is a five minute drive away. Would thoroughly recommend booking. Many thanks Fiona.

Aly2016-08-03T00:00:00Z

This lodge is a perfect little bolt hole for a lone traveller, couple or anyone with a little furry or none furry addition. My partner and I spent two nights here and loved it's proximity to the beautiful beaches and it was within easy drives of several amazing pubs. There's a co-op in the village but not much else so you will need to be prepared to drive. The lodge was as it was pictured and described. Fiona was not there when we went but she had everything prepared for us and her Dad was on hand for morning chats and local info as he fed their cats!

Kellie2017-02-21T00:00:00Z

Very clean and comfortable accommodation. Fiona had provided tea/coffee/milk and biscuits (more than we could eat - unusual for us!!) for our arrival which was very welcome. She was very friendly and available if needed. The only problem we had was that my husband would bang his head occasionally on the sloping ceiling - but then he is spatially unaware! I had no problem. Accommodation was convenient for sightseeing. Enjoyed our stay.

Linda2016-09-11T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful relaxing short break in Northumberland. The location gives you easy access to the coastal path and Alnwick Castle & town. The apartment was very clean and comfortable with everything you could need. The bus stop just up the road provided a great way to explore the coast walking, taking you up to Beadnell (& beyond) with a lovely walk back to Longhoughton. Fiona was on hand if needed but left you in private. Would definitely stay again.

What a lovely home away from home. Although a car is needed, we expected that and used Silver Birch as a base to visit other towns and villages in the area. The house is wonderful and has everything you would need, Jan is the perfect host and kept great communication to make sure that we were comfortable and had a great stay. The Joiners Arms is literally two doors away and serves fabulous food and cocktails, and the stroll to the beach is lovely. Thanks Jan for a perfect stay! We hope to see you again!

Jan is an amazing host and really goes the extra mile to understand the needs of her individual guests. Which is above and beyond what is required but is truly appreciated. Her place is absolutely lovely, set in a very charming village.

Great place to stay, really convenient location for exploring castles and coastline. 10 min stroll to Lower Newton beach and the fabulous Ship Inn & just a short drive to Seahouses, Craster and Bamburugh. House was lovely - clean, spacious & comfortable, and great communication with host Jan.

Jan was an outstanding hostess. She could not have done more to welcome us into this beautiful home. The quality of the house was superb and both its furnishing and equipment were excellent. Also, she left us an amazing welcome pack. Further, on two occasions, she and her husband rang to make sure we had settled in without problem. In short, Jan's generosity, hospitality and thoughtfulness, together with the quality of the accommodation were far beyond our wildest expectation. The location of the house is perfect. It is quiet, yet only 50 yards to a good pub with good food. A 10 minute easy walk leads to a beautiful, tranquil bay. Everything was perfect and we strongly recommend Jan and her house to airbandb customers. Well done Jan and thank you. Stunning! 11 out of 10!

Staying in Doray was a great experience, and perfect for the four of us as a base for walking the Northumberland Coast Path. Great location, ten minutes walk from the sea, and with a really good 'gastro-pub', The Joiners Arms, even nearer! The house was really well-equipped, modern, light and airy, and with plenty of room for the four of us. Communication with Catherine was good throughout, access to the property straightforward, and we appreciated the welcoming bottle of wine. Would recommend Doray very highly.

Great house, beautifully decorated. We stayed here for the weekend with our 9 month old and 5 year old. The living room and kitchen are open plan so it was perfect for our baby who was able to crawl around safely. Perfect location, opposite the pub. We also had lovely walks down to the beach and nature reserve. Would definitely recommend.

We wanted a place to explore the Northumberland coast with our young family and Doray was perfect.

Westfield is a charming recent barn conversion, in a quiet country position. Converted to a high standard. Situated just outside of Denwick, which is a small village located approximately 1.5 miles outside of Alnwick. The property has everything you need to make your stay memorable and comfortable. It has many lovely features typical of this type of home.

Westfield is a spacious property, with stunning views. The house has a stunning lounge with wood burner and the master bedroom has an ensuite. It has a large garden, which is safe and secure for children and pets.

A lovely quiet and peaceful stopover conveniently located just off the A1 and close to the castle. Plenty of space and good sized rooms with all the essentials. Lovely fresh flowers, cake and milk provided on arrival. I would have happily stayed here for more than one night. Friendly host too. Thanl you.

Silvermoor Cottage is a charming 3 bedroom property with piteresque views, and is situated on the friendly working farm called Silvermoor. Just 3 miles from the gorgeous market town of Alnwick, and a stones throw away from the stunning Northumbrian coast, the cottage is ideally situated for those wishing to enjoy the best of the county. Silvermoor Cottage makes an ideal holiday destination for families, couples or groups of friends.

The cottage has 3 bedrooms (Master room with King bed), Twin room (2 x single beds) and a Single Room. There is a decent size open plan sitting room with open fire place, Smart TV, and dining area.
There is one family bathroom with a bath and overhead shower.
The kitchen is fully equipped with everything with pots, pans, crockery, microwave, slow cooker - everything you will need for your stay. I also leave the essentials to make things a bit easier - cooking oil, salt and pepper, tea and coffee, and milk in the fridge.

The cottage is situated in a brilliant location, for there is so much on the doorstep to take advantage of.
Alnwick is your nearest town (about 3 miles away, and 5-10 mins drive), a trip to Alnwick Castle and Gardens should definitely be on your list of things to do! The Coastline really is stunning, and there are a number of beaches that are very accessible from Silvermoor. Alnmouth Beach is a 10 minute drive and Sugarsands at Longhoughton (our person favourite), is under 10 minutes away. Craster is an excellent village (famous for its kippers), Newton by the Sea, and Seahouses are all coastal towns nearby. They all have great places to eat and would make fun days out (come rain or shine).
Also important not to forget that Lindersfarne Island, aka Holy Island, is a real experience. If you have time, do make a trip over there. Just make sure you check the causeway crossing times, people do get stuck if they get the times wrong!
In terms of shopping, Alnwick has absolutely everything you need. There is a Sainsburys, Morrissons, several Co-Ops, an Aldi and Lidl. Sainsburys also do food deliveries if this makes things easier for you.

It was a great stay. Good communication beforehand, during and after. Cottage is well refurbished, beautifully equipped and a lovely place with spectacular views to fields and horses. Plenty of towels and a nice touch with Easter eggs for the kids :-) Thank you Tali, we will be back!

A delightful cottage, perfectly situated in this beautiful coastal village. With sandy beaches, stunning views and wonderful local pubs just a stroll away, it's an idyllic setting for your Northumberland adventure.

Crocus Cottage is furnished and equipped to a very high standard and provides the perfect base for those looking to explore the delights of the heritage coastline as well as those looking for total relaxation in this beautiful area. The cottage provides accommodation for four people and is an ideal retreat for couples, families and groups of friends. For larger groups Crocus can be booked with its sister cottages, Snowdrop and Periwinkle, which are part of the same converted stone coach house and also sleep four, therefore providing accommodation for up to 12 people.
Downstairs the cottage has an attractive open-plan living space, with lounge, kitchen and dining area. The lounge includes two leather sofas, 32" flat-screen TV with DVD and Freeview, an i-Pod docking station, CD player/radio and a selection of books, games and DVDs for those cosy evenings in. The modern kitchen includes an electric hob, grill and oven, a fridge with a freezing compartment as well as a microcwave, toaster, kettle, cafetiere and a small amount of tea and coffee to welcome you at your journey's end. You will also find it is well stocked with cooking equipment and utensils. The dining area seats four comfortably at a surdy wooden dining table.
Upstairs the cottage has a double bedroom and a twin bedroom, each with a wardrobe and drawer space.
The bathroom has a bath with electric shower over, WC and wash basin.
Outside the cottage opens up onto a small, south-facing patio area with a sturdy wooden bench and 'bistro' style table and chairs. There is a private parking space allocated to the cottage.

The village of Embleton is one of Northumberland's true gems. Why not try the wonderfully traditional village pub - The Greys Inn, or try out the Dunstanburgh Castle Hotel, which shares the courtyard with Crocus Cottage. The award winning Embleton Bay is a ten minute stroll away, with its beautiful sandy beach that seems to stretch for miles. Just before you reach the dunes you'll see Dunstanburgh Castle Golf Club, which boasts a traditional 18 hole links course with views that simply cannot be beaten. There is also a bar and restaurant in the club which are open to the public. The village has a small shop and post office and for the younger ones there is a delightful, well-equipped and modern play area in the village.
Such is the beauty of the location of this lovely village, there is much that can be done without going anywhere near your car. A gentle stroll up the coast will bring you to the delightful village of Low Newton with its renowned pub, The Ship Inn (which has its own microbrewery!) and picturesque bay. To the south of Embleton it is just a short stroll to the magnificient ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle and continuing past you will soon arrive in the village of Craster, with its harbour and world famous kippers!

This is a very comfortable cottage in a brilliant location for exploring the beautiful Northumberland countryside and coast. John was a great host and went out of his way to make sure we had an enjoyable stay. Would highly recommend this cottage.

Great place to visit. Easy to get to and a lovely place to see the beautiful countryside. The property is as described. Lovely and clean. With the shop/post office just round the corner it was very easy to get everything we needed. Definitely recommend the local pub the grays inn which has wonderful food and very friendly. We would definitely come back again!

Great wee place and perfect for my mum, my dog and me. Clean, fresh and comfortable - just as in the pictures. The place suited us brilliantly. Thanks, John.
